Facebook has banned a number of far-right and extremist personalities from its platforms, including InfoWars host Alex Jones, as it attempts to cleanse the platforms of hateful content.

After severing access to Alex Jones' podcasts last month, Apple has now completely banned the controversial conspiracy theorist's Infowars app from the App Store for violating content rules.
Alex Jones, and his various shows, have been removed from iTunes, Spotify, YouTube, and Facebook. As was to be expected from the right wing InfoWars, it called the action a "purge" and invoked gulags.
Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' Facebook account has been suspended for 30 days as a result of violating community guidelines; he may even face a permanent ban from the social network.
